Smart City is a weekly, hour-long public radio talk show that takes an in-depth look at urban life, the people, places, ideas and trends shaping cities. Host Carol Coletta talks with national and international public policy experts, elected officials, economists, business leaders, artists, developers, planners and others for a penetrating discussion of urban issues.

As the New Year gets underway, we all turn our attention to the future. But for our guests this week, it is their job to think about the future and its implications for cities and for business.

  • Tara Lemmey is founder and CEO of LENS Ventures, a network of leading thinkers focused on strategic innovation. Tara is attempting to help urban leaders adopt the ways of venture capitalists to innovate their way to the future. She is a leading member of the Markle Taskforce on National Security in the Information Age, where she heads the technology committee.
  • Jody Turner is founder and CEO of Culture of Future where she tries to make trends from a fuzzy future clearer for companies like Nike, Starbucks and IDEO. Jody worked in graphic design for 25 years and transitioned into trend and design-based strategies.
Listen to host Carol Colletta - list of additional stations/times - 3pm on Saturday and 7pm Sunday on WNED - 970 in Buffalo, NY. Past Shows are archived and the newsletter is published regularly.
Smart City is underwritten by Buffalo, NY's own Hyde Family Foundation...thanks George!
